2 quick phone calls to Equifax and Transuinion would guarantee that nothing comes of your stolen data.

"How the hell can you NOT take into consideration this security breach that fucked over so many people?"

Really? My PS2 has been going strong now for 10 years. I'm not aware of any major hardware problems they had.

Get over it.

I was commenting on HIS comment, he said the PS3 must not have launched with good security.

What was killer security 5 years ago, probably still wouldn't be today.

It doesn't bode well for the 3DS, when its constantly being outsold by a 6 year old system.

Tell that that having money is nothing to sneer at, but to envy.

Edit

Ok, either America doesn't "get" the PSP, or Japan gets it too much.

ZING!

No, no it wasn't.

I never said Sony is good at staying off a hackers radar, I said the best A company can hope for is to staff off a hackers radar.

Again, how do you know what security they had in place?

Corporations are made up of people. Who can, and do love. Sony is just a name that describes a large company full of many diverse people. While a corporation can't feel pain, the people who make it up do.

Must it be one or the other?

Can you confirm this? I know a guy with a non connected PS3 that plays all the new games.

There is no law that says what's required, hence there was nothing "criminal" taking place.
